Abstract

The most popular gold sweetpotato variety is prone to splitting in cooler weather. Other varieties are prone to skinning damage. Preliminary USA generated data indicates a link between nutrition and skin hardening. This project initiated a collaborative Australian and USA study to investigate the roles of nutrients in skinning and splitting of sweetpotatoes.
